BABAR-ERI: Black Array of Broadband Absolute Radiometers - Earth Radiation Imager

September 22, 2023
Author(s)
Chris Yung, Cameron Straatsma, Nathan Tomlin, David Harber, Odele Coddington, John H. Lehman, Michelle Stephens
BABAR-ERI is being developed for a CubeSat capable of imaging the Earth's outgoing longwave radiation with a 1 km ground sample distance (GSD) using a push-broom imager. The detector is a silicon micromachined 32-pixel linear array of electrical

Extremely broadband calibrated bolometers and microbolometer arrays for Earth radiation budget measurements

September 30, 2022
Author(s)
Michelle Stephens, Chris Yung, Nathan Tomlin, Dave Harber, Cameron Straatsma, Atasi Dan, Erica Freire Antunes, Peter Pilewskie, Odele Coddington, John H. Lehman
The Earth radiation budget, a 40-year data record of the balance between solar radiation reaching the Earth and the amount absorbed, reflected, and emitted from the Earth, is a key climate record for determining whether the Earth is warming or cooling. The

High-accuracy room temperature planar absolute radiometer based on vertically aligned carbon nanotubes

July 1, 2021
Author(s)
Anna Vaskuri, Michelle Stephens, Nathan Tomlin, Matthew Spidell, Chris Yung, Andrew Walowitz, Cameron Straatsma, David Harber, John H. Lehman
We have developed a Planar Absolute Radiometer for Room Temperature (PARRoT) that will replace the legacy C-series calorimeter as the free-space continuous-wave laser power detector standard at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

Room temperature Laser Power Standard Using a Microfabricated, Electrical Substitution Bolometer

February 18, 2021
Author(s)

Michelle Stephens, Christopher Yung, Nathan Tomlin, Anna Vaskuri, Ivan Ryger, Matthew Spidell, Malcolm G. White, Thomas Jenkins, Jennifer Landry, Tesfatsion Sereke, John Lehman

The design and performance of a room temperature electrical substitution radiometer for use as an absolute standard for measuring continuous-wave laser power over a wide range of wavelengths, beam diameters and powers is described. The standard achieves an

Transparent High-Frequency Ultrasonic Transducer for Photoacoustic Microscopy Application

September 1, 2020
Author(s)
Jeeseong Hwang, Christopher S. Yung, Ruimin Chen, Yun He, Junhui Shi, Lihong Wang, Qifa Zhou
We report the development of an optically transparent high-frequency ultrasonic transducer using lithium niobate single-crystal and indium-tin-oxide electrodes with up to 90 % optical transmission in the visible to near infrared spectrum. The center

Dual-comb photoacoustic spectroscopy

June 19, 2020
Author(s)
Jacob T. Friedlein, Esther Baumann, Kimberly Briggman, Gabriel M. Colacion, Fabrizio R. Giorgetta, Daniel I. Herman, Nathan R. Newbury, Jeeseong Hwang, Ian R. Coddington, Kevin C. Cossel, Gabriel Ycas, Christopher Yung, Eli V. Hoenig, Edgar F. Perez, Aaron Goldfain
Spectrally-resolved photoacoustic imaging is a promising technique for label-free imaging in optically scattering materials. However, this technique often requires acquisition of a separate image at each wavelength of interest. This reduces imaging speeds

Microfabricated carbon nanotube bolometers

May 7, 2020
Author(s)
Nathan Tomlin, Chris Yung, Michelle Stephens, Igor Vayshenker, Zach Castleman, Matthiew Denoual, Ginger Drake, Nat Farber, David Harber, Karl Heuerman, Greg Kopp, Heather Passe, Erik Richard, Joel Rutkowski, Jacob Sprunck, Samuel Van Dreser, Wengang Zheng
Multi-wall vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) are nearly ideal absorbers due to their exceptionally low reflectance over a broad wavelength range. Integrating VACNTs as bolometer absorbers, however, can be difficult due to their high growth

Microfabricated bolometer based on a vertically aligned carbon nanotube absorber

March 2, 2020
Author(s)
Anna K. Vaskuri, Michelle S. Stephens, Nathan A. Tomlin, Christopher S. Yung, Andrew J. Walowitz, Cameron Straatsma, Dave Harber, John H. Lehman
We have designed a microfabricated planar absolute radiometer based on a vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) absorber and an electrical power substitution method. The radiometer is designed to operate at room temperature and to be capable of

Compact total irradiance monitor: Flight demonstration

August 30, 2019
Author(s)
Dave Harber, John H. Lehman, Nathan A. Tomlin, Christopher Yung, Malcolm White, Zach Castleman, Ginger Drake, Samuel Van Dreser, Nat Farber, Karl Heurman, Joel Rutkowski, Alan Sims, Jacob Sprunck, Cameron Straatsma, Isaac Wanamaker, Wengang Zheng, Greg Kopp, P. Pilewskie, Michelle Stephens
The long-term balance between Earth's absorption of solar energy and emission of radiation to space is a fundamental climate measurement. Total solar irradiance (TSI) has been measured from space, uninterrupted, for the past 40 years via a series of
